Secure, Resilient Connectivity for Government and Mission Environments

Federal agencies, DoW organizations, and mission partners need resilient connectivity at the highest-levels of security across users, devices, cloud, edge compute, and distributed infrastructure. Traditional VPNs, static networks, and tunneling architectures create critical security holes, access bottlenecks, and challenges in environments with unreliable links, remote sites, or disconnected operations. The looming quantum threat environment further increases these challenges.

ZeroTier changes all of this.

Based on zero trust, ZeroTier Quantum is the world's only end-to-end software-defined quantum-secure networking platform. Unlike traditional solutions that bolt post-quantum cryptography onto existing architectures, ZeroTier Quantum was designed from the ground up to deliver fully quantum-resilient networks. Strategic mandates from the DoW, NIST, the White House, and international partners have set a firm timeline for the transition to quantum-resistant communications. These initiatives require all critical defense and national security infrastructure to meet stringent quantum-resistance standards by January 1, 2027.

ZeroTier Quantum helps public sector organizations:

  • Achieve post-quantum readiness directly without rip-and-replace approaches, including for new products and platforms, and existing or legacy infrastructure
  • Connect distributed devices, clouds, and edge systems without constrained VPN infrastructure, including drones, COMSEC platforms, mobile devices, sensors, and security and C2 defense infrastructure
  • Improve mission continuity with the world’s fastest multipathing, multihoming, failover, and smart network traversal
  • Support PACE planning across primary, alternate, contingency, and emergency transport paths
  • Secure remote access for field teams, operators, contractors, and mission partners, including appear-and-disappear ephemeral networks
  • Reduce network complexity across hybrid, remote, and extremely mission-critical environments.

Key capabilities include:

  • The highest standard of cryptographic security, meeting or exceeding the most stringent PQC levels set by NIST and the NSA (CSNA 2.0 with FIPS-203/204/205)
  • Fully zero trust (ZTNA) by design and includes coverage against all major attack vectors (DITS, MiTM, Forward Secrecy, Key Ratcheting, Identity, and DDoS/DoS resistance)
  • Quantum-agile and hybrid layered cryptography provides additional support for classical + quantum resistance (ML-KEM-1024 and AES-384)
  • Fully resilient control plane architecture that allows for no SPOF limitations, even in contested environments
  • Centralized policy and access control, with localized enforcement
  • Near-wire throughput performance at 10Gbps with high memory and CPU efficiency
  • Complete privacy flexibility including sovereign- and air-gapped deployment models
  • Software-defined networking across cloud, edge, on-prem, and remote environments in any topology (peer-to-peer, mesh, hub-and-spoke, tree, etc.)
  • Robust NAT and firewall traversal, as well as multipath networking for redundancy, load balancing, and fault tolerance
  • Layers 2 and 3 support for bridging and integrations into complex and legacy network environments.
  • Offline connectivity and private relaying for mission-critical deployments requiring variable, but lossless connectivity.
  • Multi-interface including API, CLI, AI/MCP, OTel and more.

ZeroTier Quantum is a “Swiss Army knife for highly secure networking” and provides government and mission-centric teams a simpler way to build quantum-secure networks that can operate across fragmented infrastructure, unreliable transport, and a rapidly evolving threat environment.
